Exercise stress tests are useful in many areas of medical practice and research. The results extend the clinical significance of information obtained from other sources (ie, detailed history, thorough physical examination, resting electrocardiogram, chest radiograph, and basic laboratory analyses) and serve as a diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic guide. Leg or arm ergometry is commonly used to assess a patient's functional status, diagnose relative myocardial ischemia, and investigate physiologic mechanisms of cardiac symptoms. The responses may also be used to determine the effects of interventions such as coronary artery bypass surgery, percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, medications, or exercise training.
运动应激试验在医学实践和研究的许多领域都很有用。其结果扩展了从其他来源获得的信息的临床意义(即详细病史、全面体格检查、静息心电图、胸部X光片和基础实验室分析),并作为诊断、预后和治疗的指南。腿部或手臂测力计常用于评估患者的功能状态、诊断相对性心肌缺血以及研究心脏症状的生理机制。这些反应还可用于确定诸如冠状动脉搭桥手术、经皮冠状动脉腔内血管成形术、药物治疗或运动训练等干预措施的效果。
